A locking device for releasably locking two furniture parts that can move relative to one another against the force of a force accumulator, includes a heart-shaped locking contour with a heart-shaped depression and a locking element, and can move relative to the heart-shaped locking contour and, in a locking position, can be arranged in the heart-shaped depression of the heart-shaped locking contour. The locking element can be moved, by a motion out of the locking position into a further pushed position, out of the heart-shaped depression into a release position, and the locking device has a push-through depression separate from the heart-shaped depression, in which the at least one locking element can be arranged and at least one blocking contour which blocks movement of the at least one locking element out of the push-through depression into the heart-shaped depression.

A hinge device for supporting an electronic device includes a first portion and a second portion movable relative to the first portion with a biasing element supported by one or the first portion or the second portion. The first portion has an arcuate groove, and the second portion has an arcuate rail configured to complementarily mate with the arcuate groove and slide therein. The biasing element contacts a leading edge of the other of the first portion or second portion, and the first portion and second portion are bistable in a closed state relative to one another and an open state relative to one another based at least partially on a surface profile of the biasing element applying a radial force to the leading edge.

An automated gate for robotic mowers may include at least two doors that are sized to receive a robotic mower, and it can be installed in any fence to enable the mower to move between the yards on its own. The at least two doors of an automated gate may provide optional capability to lock when not used by the mower and unlock automatically when the mower gets close. By default, the at least two doors may remain unlocked, yet closed, thereby providing a cost-effective solution for customers who do not have to worry about pets. An add-on module may be provided that may add a locking mechanism and triggering mechanism, thereby providing end users with the ability to lock the automated gate completely.

System for detecting the movement conditions of the leaf (2) closing a barrier, this leaf being able to occlude a delimited opening or passage and in which the leaf itself is moved by a motor (5) whose rotation shaft (R1) is associated with a motion transmission mechanism to this leaf. On said motor is present a first device for measuring the rotation of said rotation shaft (R1), and at least a second measuring device is associated with at least a second rotation shaft (R2), said second rotation shaft being connected to the first shaft by means of a reduction gear (8), whose reduction ratio is non-integer.

The present disclosure provides for a securable pet door. The securable pet door may comprise at least one door, at least one knob, one or more windows, at least one frame, and/or at least one hinge. The knob may comprise a latch for secure closing. When the pet door comprises at least one hinge, the hinge(s) may be inserted into at least one hinge recess so that the door may be securely locked via at least one locking mechanism. The orientation of the one or more elements of the securable pet door may be predetermined, securable, or customizable. The door may open from, slide into, revolve within, or move in some other non-limiting equivalent way from or relative to the frame. The frame may comprise at least one sensor. When the frame comprises at least one sensor, the sensor(s) may interface with at least one external device, such as a computing device, to actuate the at least one locking mechanism from a remote location.

An automatic disengaging linkage system including a housing operably connectable to a garage door trolley and a garage door arm. The housing can define a main bore configured to receive a portion of the garage door arm. A ball can be receivable in a ball bore defined in the housing. A biasing member can be configured to force the ball in engagement with the garage door arm or an arm pin associated with the garage door arm. The ball or the biasing member can be configured to disengage with the garage door arm with the housing when a predetermined pulling force is applied to the housing. The garage door arm can automatically be disengaged with the housing upon encounter a sufficient pulling force that retracts the ball into its ball bore thereby allowing the garage door arm to move freely out from the main bore.

A window operator handle and cover with magnetic features that enable the handle to be retained to the cover in a folded position. The handle can have a detent mechanism to retain the handle in an unfolded position. The operator cover can also be attached to the operator with magnets.

The present invention relates to a door device for closing a door opening between two rooms of a building. The door device comprises a door leaf and a pivot hinge for pivotably suspending the door leaf in the door opening. The pivot hinge comprises a hinge foot which is attached to a hardening surrounding the door opening by means of wall attachment means. The pivot hinge furthermore comprises, for each wall attachment means, an insert with at least two pairs of parallel faces and a central opening which is eccentric with respect to the central axis, so that the orientation of the insert can influence the orientation of the door leaf in the closed position.

Systems and methods for providing a door seal system for top-hanging sliding doors. In some implementations, two angled mating surfaces are used, one angled surface on a fixed frame and one reversed angled surface on the slideable door panel. The slideable door panel slides directly parallel to the fixed door frame. A mating seal surface is created that is only in frictional contact for a small portion of the linear slide distance of the door panel. In some implementations, rather than placing two opposing angled seal surfaces, the sealing system has one angled surface on the fixed door frame. In such implementations, the sliding door panel is adjusted to be in a reverse angled orientation relative to the angled surface of the fixed door frame. Seal designs for the rear vertical edge of the slideable door panel are also provided herein.

An exemplary lockset includes a mortise case, a magnet assembly mounted in the mortise case, and a manual actuator operable to move the magnet assembly between a coupling position in which a first magnet of the magnet assembly is aligned with a reference point and a decoupling position in which the first magnet is misaligned with the reference point. In certain embodiments, the magnet assembly further includes a second magnet having an opposite polarity as the first magnet, and the second magnet is misaligned with the reference point when the magnet assembly is in the coupling position and is aligned with the reference point when the magnet assembly is in the decoupling position.
